Swans Symbolize Grace and Peace – And They Need Our Protection!
Based at Lake Attersee, the Swan Protection Association of Upper Austria is passionately dedicated to the preservation and care of these majestic creatures. We take a holistic approach that combines swan conservation with animal welfare, education, and environmental protection. By safeguarding the habitats of swans, we contribute significantly to the protection of our natural environment. Our mission is to promote healthy swan populations, preserve their habitats, and foster a sustainable coexistence between humans and wildlife.
Our Key Objectives:
- Protection and Care for Swans:
We prioritize the well-being of swans by providing care for injured and ill birds. This includes supporting or operating rescue centers for injured or orphaned swans, offering medical treatment, and exploring alternative healing methods. - Habitat Preservation and Nature Conservation:
Protecting and restoring the natural habitats of swans is central to our work. We collaborate closely with environmental and conservation organizations to create suitable habitats and maintain ecological balance. - Public Awareness and Education:
We strive to inform the public about the needs of swans and how to feed them responsibly. Through information campaigns, lectures, and workshops, we aim to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation for these magnificent birds. - Research and Monitoring:
Conducting scientific studies on the behavior and health of swans is a vital part of our mission. We systematically monitor their populations to detect threats early and take appropriate action. - Protection from Threats:
We actively work to shield swans from natural predators, human-induced dangers, and environmental pollution. By creating safe breeding grounds and collaborating with authorities and partners, we ensure their safety and well-being.
Together, let us safeguard the grace and serenity swans bring to our world and preserve their legacy for future generations.
Our goal: Through collective action and commitment to protecting animals, we promote a respectful coexistence among people and raise awareness of the importance of nature and biodiversity.
Together for the protection of swans, our environment, and society.
